Sinopsis

Nancy Kline&rsquo,s poems speak to us compellingly of time, nature, love, and loss. Note in particular to &ldquo,Prudence Island Transport&rdquo, (sestina), &ldquo,Stopping by Pete&rsquo,s Pond on a Summer Morning&rdquo, (sonnet), and &ldquo,Vacuuming&rdquo, (a very sprightly villanelle).áWe should all be glad that Nancy Kline has shared her poems in this introspective, evocative, and altogether lovely collection. Whether writing with exquisite clarity about parents, a snapping turtle, or the simple stuff of life, she says much about our connection (or not) to the world and to others. Poet Mary Oliver has written, &ldquo,The lyric poem is brief, concentrated, has no more than a single focus, single voice, and employs a natural musicality.&rdquo, Readers will find an echo of Oliver in On the Edge as Kline explores life&rsquo,s journey, where the possibilities inherent in the word &ldquo,yet&rdquo, speak of &ldquo,power, opportunity, hope . . .&rdquo, á áá
